Using Ultra Low Frequency Field Line Resonances to Study the Inner Magnetosphere
Author: David Berube

Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Observations of ultra-low-frequency (ULF) field line resonances can be used to infer the plasma mass density along magnetospheric field lines. In this dissertation, we develop an automated technique for determining field line resonance frequencies using data from pairs of ground-based magnetometers. We then improve upon existing techniques for computing the plasma mass density along field lines by considering a realistic magnetic field geometry, as opposed to a dipole field model. We then construct the first empirical plasma mass density model from observations of field line resonances using over 5000 hours of data from the MEASURE array of ground magnetometers. The model is combined with an electron density model from IMAGE RPI to constrain heavy ion concentrations in the inner magnetosphere. We find that in the aftermath of large geomagnetic storms, the average ion mass increases with radial distance from the Earth, implying a heavy ion torus in the outer plasmasphere. We also use our plasma mass density database to characterize the diurnal refilling of inner magnetospheric flux tubes. We find a 30 to 80 percent daily increase in mass density for L

Book Description
An authoritative introduction for graduate students in the physical sciences, this award-winning textbook explains the wide variety of physical, chemical, and geological processes that govern the motions and properties of planets. This updated second edition has been revised and improved while maintaining its existing structure and organization. Many data tables and plots have been updated to account for the latest measurements. A new Appendix focuses on recent discoveries since the second edition was first published. These include results from Cassini, Kepler, MESSENGER, MRO, LRO, Dawn at Vesta, Curiosity, and others, as well as many ground-based observatories. With over 300 exercises to help students apply the concepts covered, this textbook is ideal for graduate courses in astronomy, planetary science and earth science, and well suited as a reference for researchers. Color versions of many figures, movie clips supplementing the text, and other resources are available at www.cambridge.org/depater.

Essential Radio Astronomy
Author: James J. Condon
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 069113779X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
The ideal text for a one-semester course in radio astronomy Essential Radio Astronomy is the only textbook on the subject specifically designed for a one-semester introductory course for advanced undergraduates or graduate students in astronomy and astrophysics. It starts from first principles in order to fill gaps in students' backgrounds, make teaching easier for professors who are not expert radio astronomers, and provide a useful reference to the essential equations used by practitioners. This unique textbook reflects the fact that students of multiwavelength astronomy typically can afford to spend only one semester studying the observational techniques particular to each wavelength band. Essential Radio Astronomy presents only the most crucial concepts—succinctly and accessibly. It covers the general principles behind radio telescopes, receivers, and digital backends without getting bogged down in engineering details. Emphasizing the physical processes in radio sources, the book's approach is shaped by the view that radio astrophysics owes more to thermodynamics than electromagnetism. Proven in the classroom and generously illustrated throughout, Essential Radio Astronomy is an invaluable resource for students and researchers alike. The only textbook specifically designed for a one-semester course in radio astronomy Starts from first principles Makes teaching easier for astronomy professors who are not expert radio astronomers Emphasizes the physical processes in radio sources Covers the principles behind radio telescopes and receivers Provides the essential equations and fundamental constants used by practitioners Supplementary website includes lecture notes, problem sets, exams, and links to interactive demonstrations An online illustration package is available to professors
